Bill Ritter on Abortion

Democrat

Personally opposes abortion but fund emergency contraception

Based on my faith, I am personally opposed to abortion. But I recognize that people who disagree with me on this issue hold equally strong convictions. We all would like to see fewer women facing an unintended pregnancy. To reach this common ground, we
must:

Make a stronger commitment to family planning. I will restore the funding to Planned Parenthood.

Ensure better access to health care for all women, including birth control and emergency contraception without a doctor’s prescription.
